Sweet Potato Slaw with Asian peanut dresing

Spiced Sweet Potato Slaw with Asian Peanut Dressing

I LOVE this salad. It has crunch and sweet, spicy nourishment from the sweet potatoes. It can be eaten while the sweet potatoes are still warm from the oven or cold. This recipe is also versatile. Use any cabbage and add other vegetables like carrot, capsicum and cucumber.

It actually looks a lot prettier when red cabbage is used however I can’t find any at the moment and I really wanted to share the recipe now. When I next make it with red cabbage I will add a photo.
